Protection Tutorial

Before we get into the nitty gritty details of the tutorial First of all we need to understand why we protect and learn a few of the basic commands, The only way to fully prevent accidents and greifing is area protection, because people tend to be clumsy and accidents happen from time to time, we use the combination of WorldEdit and WorldGuard to fullfill our protection needs.

Note:

On Our Minecraft Server the protection can only be set-up by VIP or up so if you are a Member, or a please contact a Mod to set-up the protection for you, after the area protection is set you can use several commands to customize your protected area.

Following are the basic commands you need to know:

//wand
